Reddit changed Wall Street during the pandemic. Was the GameStop saga the beginning of a new trend or a one-time occurrence? What is the unique role that Redditors will play in the future of equity markets? Memestock Alpha Degenerates: Reddit vs. Wall Street explores the rise of retail investors and their impact on financial markets and investment decisions.

Readers will learn what to expect after the whirlwind of new investment dynamics that emerged in 2021. Author M.G. Llaguno shares stories such as...

  • How a social media community called WallStreetBets took on the largest hedge funds on Wall Street, and then squeezed them;
  • How rising individual investors uniquely used memes and humor to share investment strategies during the COVID-19 pandemic;
  • How public companies on the brink of failure leveraged the risk appetite of retail investors to fund growth, and who has come out on top.
  • Memestock Alpha Degenerates speaks to individual investors, Wall Street analysts and business leaders looking at the bigger picture of how social media has transformed the industry and how adapting quickly creates huge opportunities and rewards.
